Well I'm one of those idiots tonight. I just hooked up a battery to a velineon the wrong *beeping* way. So the battery still works but is most likely damaged. The velineon esc is toast. Any one know how much it will cost to have Traxxas repair this ESC after this act of stupidity?

I believe you are witnessing what is commonly referred to as diffusion of responsibility, or at least something close to it.

Standards have dropped quite a bit, there's no question about that. When you combine that with the desire for peer validation, you get idiots.
